cluster execution

Asked by lorenzo marafatto

I am working with the stable version of madgraph now
if I choose the cluster mode I still get this error:

error is fail to submit to the cluster:

and occurred at :Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/afs/cern.ch/user/l/lmarafat/mg5amcnlo-3.0.1-lepcoll/madgraph/various/cluster.py", line 1009, in submit2
    id = pat.search(output).groups()[0]
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'groups'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/afs/cern.ch/user/l/lmarafat/mg5amcnlo-3.0.1-lepcoll/madgraph/various/misc.py", line 419, in deco_f_retry
    return f(*args, **opt)
  File "/afs/cern.ch/user/l/lmarafat/mg5amcnlo-3.0.1-lepcoll/madgraph/various/cluster.py", line 1011, in submit2
    raise ClusterManagmentError('fail to submit to the cluster: \n%s' \
madgraph.various.cluster.ClusterManagmentError: fail to submit to the cluster:

any idea?
many thanks

Hi,

So the cluster does not respond to the submition script in the expected way.
In most cases, this means that the scheduller refuses your job for some reason.

If you edit
File "/afs/cern.ch/user/l/lmarafat/mg5amcnlo-3.0.1-lepcoll/madgraph/various/cluster.py", line 1009, in submit2
and add before that line a " print(output)"

you might get the information why the cluster forbids you to submit on the cluster.

Cheers,

Olivier
